Withum is proud to announce the expansion of its advisory practice to include Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) consulting services.

Joe Holman, founder of ESG Administration, joins Withum to lead the new ESG practice. Joe comes to the Firm with over 25 years of experience, including providing ESG integration, monitoring and support services for investment managers and operating companies. With a passion for sustainability and unparalleled expertise in developing socially responsible policies, Joe’s unique insight will be invaluable to any business looking to implement ESG into its operating framework.

“ESG is more than being a good corporate citizen; it’s about understanding the relationship between ESG and long-term value,” says Joe Holman. “I help companies connect the dots that drive real corporate value while at the same time making the world a better place for all of us.”

Withum’s ESG consulting services help organizations implement meaningful ESG and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) best practices. Operating companies and investment managers look to ESG consulting firms, like Withum, for guidance and support on the entire ESG value chain. From assisting companies with identifying key ESG value drivers to mitigating investment risk, Withum offers solutions that enhance ESG strategy and framework and increase organizational transparency in reporting.

“Building strategic service offerings are always exciting for the Firm.” said Bill Hagaman, Managing Partner and CEO of Withum. “By adding ESG Consulting Services to our advisory suite, we created an initiative that enhances the innovative, value-added services our clients expect while aligning perfectly with our Firm’s values. It brings us another step closer to making the world a better place by helping companies implement socially and environmentally conscious investment decisions.”

Withum is no stranger to this space. Within the Firm, there have been numerous initiatives over the years that promote sustainability and community wellness, like comprehensive sustainable new office buildouts, expansion of the existing inclusion and diversity principles, and the Firm’s annual Withum Week of Caring, a decade-long tradition where Withum team members spend days leading up to Thanksgiving volunteering in their communities. Now, Withum is proud to offer ESG services so that more companies can execute socially responsible operating and investment strategies to build a better world for future generations.
